Description

A beautifully written introduction to Indian mythology, join storyteller, scholar and teacher, Dr Raj Balkaran, and explore the unforgettable tales behind 50 key yoga poses, such as: · Vîrabhadrâsana II, the original warrior pose · Tâ?âsana, mountain pose · Bhuja?gâsana, cobra pose · Garu?âsana, eagle pose · Padmâsana, lotus pose · Vîrâsana, hero pose · Úavâsana, corpse pose  Meet iconic Gods and Goddesses, from Ga?eœa, the elephant-headed god of wisdom, to Œiva, Lord of Yogis, and Kali, goddess of mind, body, soul and death. Explore the rivalry between the sages Vasi??ha and Viúvâmitra, and their cosmic feud over a wish-fulfilling cow. Plunge into the depths of one of the richest myths in Hinduism: the battle between the demons and the gods who churn the cosmic oceans in search for the elixir of immortality. And learn how Œiva got his blue throat!   Learn, through the mythology of the poses, more about the roots of this ancient practice and how you can use their teachings to better appreciate and respect yoga's true origins.   Enhance your practice by reading one story before or at the end of class, and incorporating the poses and their teaching into your life, as well as your yoga practice, and transform the way you view and practice this timeless art.
